Has enabled seamless integration across platforms while supporting advanced analytics for customer insights
Microsoft Dynamics CRM doesn't provide solutions that allow you to transform easily if you have a heterogeneous mix of technologies or if your contact center is on analog and you try to digitize it. A lot of custom work is needed if you have to integrate heterogeneous technologies with the Microsoft suite, but if you are using the Microsoft suite, then it's quite seamless. Microsoft Dynamics CRM should add commercial models that allow smaller companies to use it because it can get pretty expensive. Better commercial options for smaller implementations may be helpful. There should be commercial options for smaller companies, as the overheads and costs of Dynamics can be quite high.

"The solution is versatile and customizable."
"The deployment of Microsoft Dynamics CRM is easy because it's a software as a service, which eliminates the need to deploy anything in our data center."

"The Outlook calendar has been very helpful for us."
"I have used many Microsoft solutions and I am comfortable using the solution. Additionally, it is secure."
"The control that we have of a process and the ability to have everything recorded from the beginning to the end of the process have been the most valuable features."
"It's a good solution for enterprise-level companies."
"The product's most valuable feature is the ease of obtaining information to make decisions."
 

Cons

"When it comes to any necessary changes or updates, we have issues. It is not very agnostic in terms of working with other platforms. A lot of data transformation had to be done internally in order to send it to various systems."
"We would like to see the tech support for this product improved, at present we are frequently waiting for a couple of days before we receive any response."
"More complicated to manage when using with Outlook and SharePoint."
"Overall, the solution could be made to be more user friendly."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM can improve by having integration with Slack. Additionally, the solution is incomplete, and we must use other solutions to fulfill our needs."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM needs to improve its integrations."
"My company's biggest challenge with Microsoft Dynamics CRM is wanting to market solely to leads without having to create a contact and link the contact to the lead. From a marketing standpoint, there's room for improvement in the lead process of Microsoft Dynamics CRM."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM could improve by making the ports and dashboards more intuitive using Microsoft Azure analytical features. Compared to Salesforce and other partners, the dashboards in Microsoft Dynamics CRM are less intuitive."
"The platform's user interfaces could be simplified."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The annual license for Microsoft Dynamics CRM could be reduced, it is expensive."
"The cost could be cheaper. I would rate them 3 out of 5."
"Pricing for this software could be cheaper."
"The solution is expensive."
"The customers that have Microsoft Office 365, the license price is competitive. It is competitive because the next solution above it is Salesforce, which is licensed quite high. The price annually was approximately $55 per user but we did a combination of users with some of them having the higher range of approximately $85."
"Microsoft Dynamics CRM is very affordable if you use the yearly subscription."
"I give the price of the solution an eight out of ten."
"We have a three-year ELA with all our Microsoft solutions and often we had to do a true-up which was approximately $1,000,000. Additionally, we pay approximately $2,500 a month for support."
"The product's initial price is quite low, around $100 for a fixed deployment."
